CVE-2010-1634
Multiple integer overflows in audioop.c in the audioop module in Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, and 3.2...
CVE-2010-1634 is a medium vulnerability (CVSS 5.0) in Python, published May 27, 2010. No source lists public exploit code. EPSS puts the chance of exploitation in the next 30 days at 4.21%, the 90th percentile. Fixed in python2.7 2.7-1.
Multiple integer overflows in audioop.c in the audioop module in Python 2.6, 2.7, 3.1, and 3.2 allow context-dependent attackers to cause a denial of service (application crash) via a large fragment, as demonstrated by a call to audioop.lin2lin with a long string in the first argument, leading to a buffer overflow. NOTE: this vulnerability exists because of an incorrect fix for CVE-2008-3143.5.
